National Cookie Day is Dec. 4.

Nestlé Toll House asked 5,024 people nationwide what kind of cookies best remind them of their state. People had 57 choices, from a traditional chocolate chip (two options: with and without nuts) and shortbread to flavors like green tea and apple cinnamon cookies. Using the data collected in October, Nestlé created a list of cookies that "best describe" each state.

Florida went with orange, Hawaii chose Macadamia (the nuts are a signature crop there) and New Mexico selected Biscochito (the official state cookie). The most popular pick was chocolate chip, with one out of every three Americans surveyed, Nestlé reports.
